Week 16: Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots

The Buffalo Bills will head back to back to primetime as they will face the Patriots in New England on Monday Night Football. This is another matchup that can go either way and the gap between the two teams is not nearly as wide as in past seasons.

However, it is hard to predict the Bills sweeping the Patriots in a season when they have only beat them four times since 2000. That is why I believe the Buffalo Bills will split their season with the New England Patriots.

Prediction: Loss (10-5)

Week 17: Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills

The Buffalo Bills will finish out the 2020 season at home against the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins are going to be an improved team but the Buffalo Bills are just ahead in their process and if the division, or just a playoff spot, is on the line the Bills will not let that opportunity slip away.

Prediction: Win (11-5)

Buffalo Bills Final Record

Prediction: 11-5

There are a number of games on the schedule that will be decided by a touchdown or less. The Buffalo Bills, with the defense they have, should not be blown out much this season. There are going to be games where they catch a break and win a game they likely shouldn’t have and there are going to be down weeks.

For the second year in a row, the Buffalo Bills should win double-digit games. When the schedule first came out I predicted a 10-6 record and this time around I believe 11 wins is certainly realistic.
